    "This area has wonderful accessibility to I-279, only 8-10 minutes from downtown, stadiums, Consul Center, Mcknight shopping, tons of restaurants, and about 1/2 mile to Park and Ride lot with access to HOV lane. Perryview Ave. is the last street within the city and many public service officers live on this street, very safe. It also has the warm, rich, neighborhood feel as everyone looks out for each other. Views are nice too. "
